Abstract:

The study aimed to identify protection strategies against the Covid-19 pandemic among indigenous peoples in several countries. Fifty-six original articles, published2020 to May/2021, were analyzed along four axes: popular surveillance and community organization, governance and information, communication and territorial approach. Different structural vulnerabilities of indigenous peoples influenced outcomes and strategies in the face of the pandemic. The dispersion of the new disease was affected by environmental, social, and cultural elements, illustrating the structure and organization of society. Different indigenous groups in various countries have coordinated using a range of tactical approaches, drawing upon the cosmological beliefs of their people, collective decision-making, and self-regulated territorial systems guided by inherited wisdom. The deletion of data and obstacles to ethnic identification within information systems were detected in various scenarios. Indigenous autonomy in data production, analysis, and communication was a recommendation that points to their greater participation in information management. The effective coordination between government sectors, society, and indigenous entities provided valuable insight into improving the response to public health emergencies.
